3-Oxocyclobutanecarboxylic Acid (cas# 23761-23-1) is a compound useful in organic synthesis.

3-Oxocyclobutanecarboxylic acid is a very important medicine intermediate, it is widely applied in the synthetic of tens kinds of bulk drugs, such as ACK1 antibody, the MDM2 antagonist, the JAK inhibitor, CETP inhibitor, kinase inhibitor, the PDE10 inhibitor, thrombin inhibitors and in autoimmunization chronic inflammatory diseases and antitumor drug, all being used to.

The target product 3-oxocyclobutanecarboxylic acid is obtained by adopting acetone, bromine, and malononitrile as raw materials, adopting ethanol, DMF (dimethyl formamide), and water as solvents, adopting sodium iodide as an activating agent and tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) as a phase transfer catalyst through three-step reaction.
